Frequently Asked Questions
Is the Barnes VOR-TX 308 Win 130 gr TTSX approved for hunting in California?
Yes. Because this load uses a 100% copper, lead-free TTSX bullet with no lead core, it complies with California's mandatory non-toxic ammunition regulations for hunting on all lands in the state. It is fully approved for use in California's condor zone and statewide.
How does the TTSX bullet perform compared to a standard soft-point hunting bullet?
The Tipped TSX (TTSX) consistently outperforms traditional lead-core soft points in several key areas. Its polymer tip initiates expansion faster and more reliably at varying velocities, while the all-copper construction allows the nose to peel back into four sharp petals that retain nearly 100% of bullet weight — delivering deeper penetration and more consistent energy transfer than most bonded or partitioned lead-core designs.
What game animals is the 308 Win 130 gr TTSX best suited for?
This load is optimized for deer, pronghorn, feral hogs, and similar medium-sized game at distances out to 400+ yards. The lighter-than-typical 130-grain projectile in 308 Winchester produces a high muzzle velocity of 3,125 fps, resulting in a flatter trajectory that makes it especially effective for open-country or long-range hunting scenarios. It can also be used ethically on larger animals like elk at closer ranges where velocity remains sufficient for full expansion.
